In 480 B.C, during the Persian-Greco Wars, Leonidas lead 300 Spartans and thousands of allies in a mission designed to slow down the
Persian military advance toward the heart of Greece. It was considered to be "a suicide mission". When the battle seemed hopeless
King Leonidas, dismissed their allies, leaving only him and 300 other Spartans to hold off thousands of Persian warriors. They were
literally outnumbered One Thousand to One !! Yet, they manage to hold the Persians at bay for days. By all historical accounts, the
300 Spartans and King Leonidas fought with their last breath, but was eventually overpowered and killed.
